Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
After the physical intimacy you shared, you can't help but feel further connected to your man of choice.
However, there's just one problem, It has been 48 hours since your passionate sex session and you still haven't heard from him.
Although 2 days isn't forever, it sure feels like it as you anxiously wait by your phone anticipating a text or phone call from him.
Before this point, you heard from him almost instantly. This leads you to believe that something is not right.
As time continues to progress, you become even more upset.
You begin to ask yourself a million questions, some of which are:
"Is he really as into me as I thought?"
"Did I do something wrong during the night?"
"Did he think the sex was bad?"
"Was I used for sex?"
You can no longer take it any more.
The coldness in the air is killing you.
You decide to reach out first and this is what you do:
1. Show entitlement
When you have intercourse with someone that is not your boyfriend or husband, you should not expect anything more from them than just a good time.
Sure, it'd be thoughtful of him to text you several hours after or even a day later, to let you know he's thinking of you or had a great time.
But the reality of the situation is, he doesn't want to do that because he doesn't want to give you a false impression. As of now, he sees you as a girl he can have fun with. If he has too strong of an approach, he will mislead you into thinking he wants more.
Texting this man 48 hours after sex and demanding to know why he hasn't texted you sooner, will further put that person off.
Since when did you two exchange vows?
2. Text him repeatedly
Since the sex you two shared, your feelings for this guy has evolved. The bad part here is that, you expect to be his top priority. You cannot see just a good time for what it was.
You get jealous when he makes plans with other people.
You get upset that you see he is active on social media and still hasn't messaged you.
You get upset because he is taking forever to return your phone calls.
You thought sex would somehow change those things but it didn't.
You see, you're still not in an official relationship with this guy.
He only wants to live in the moment.
The sooner you understand that, the easier this will all be for you.
Texting him repeatedly is only going to allow him to assume that you are needy, clingy and desperate.
If you can't handle being seen as just a booty call then this isn't the type of relationship for you.
Look elsewhere!
3. Say too much too soon
During sex the main hormone that is released is oxytocin (the love hormone). It is produced in higher levels in women than in men. When oxytocin is released it allows us to feel bonded to our love maker. This is why a significant amount of women may feel "connected" or "in love" after intercourse.
The main hormone that is released when men have an orgasm is dopamine (the pleasure hormone). The chemical differences between us is a significant factor in why men and women (in general) carry a different attitude towards sex.
Women,
It is not wise to send messages spilling your heart out and saying how much you love or care for him.
Please do not confuse your emotions with love, it is only lust.
If you didn't feel this intense before the sex, then understand what you feel now is something that will pass in due time.
Relax!
The fact that you feel so strongly and you aren't in a official relationship with him is enough to scare him off.
All relationships have the ability to change with time, but right now see it for what it is, it is a causal sex relationship.
Take things cool and easy.
If a man is truly into you he will let it be known from the get go.
You'll never have to question anything because he will show it with all of his actions.
He will not come off distant and aloof.
You both will share an open road of communication.
He will want to spend time with you and things will not always be about sex.
He will show he cares for you in various ways such as: being there for you, listening, and showing empathy for situations you may face.
Even if you start the relationship off as casual sex partners, you will see that for the both of you it will eventually become unfulfilling because you want more out of each other.
When a man truly cares, he'll never keep you questioning.

What Girls & Guys Said
21 29Uh, you're really stereotyping men. Many of them just don't give a shit. Especially the really alpha ones so many women are so attracted to.
It's been said if a woman wants a man she'll break every rule in the book to be with him - if not she'll make a new rule up every day why she can't.
And, "You can negotiate attraction", or desire, for that matter.
If you picked wrong, and gave away your virtue, don't be surprised if you don't hear from him 'till he wants you again. It may just depend on how many others are fawning over him.
Unfortunately, the FI has really ruined things for a lot of women. They can't get commitment because he doesn't have to give it - the women are giving away their sex for free. Women are the keepers of sex, men are the keepers of commitment. Don't give your part away, either of the sexes.
Speaking about one specific situation in how a man is treating women , isn't called stereotyping. Stereotyping is when I assume all men are a certain way which I did not. In this take its evident the man distanced himself , I am just advising women on how to respond to that without making themselves get out of character.
if there's anything that a woman shouldn't do 48 hours after sex with men, they probably just shouldn't do those things, period. the sex is irrelevant. just don't ever do those things.
Yeah that's why I don't do casual sex lol
Yup! Casual sex is like a snack it only feels fulfilling for a short while (for those who do it). Eventually , they will want a meal (committed relationship) because it is more satisfying. Casual sex leads down to a road of emptiness. You eventually want someone who cares in each and every way.
Exactly. So not worth it in my opinion
I'm suprised walk wasn't on this list
Quick tip: if you aren't in a relationship, but had sex with him, and he hasn't even made the attempt to talk to you, this is what you do: forget him.
You two had sex, no need to deny that, but sex without a relationship is necessarily just for the pleasure in the moment. If you pretend it's anything more meaningful than that, you are being delusional.
If you are looking for a long term relationship, don't let the bedroom be the sales pitch, because a lot of guys are there to buy that sales pitch, and be on their merry way. Nor is that wrong. It's fine if that's all they want.
Be truthful and up-front about your wants, because men have many talents, but reading your mind is not one of them, and, otherwise, you won't get them.
If a man is truly into you he will let it be known from the get go.
You'll never have to question anything because he will show it with all of his actions.
He will not come off distant and aloof.
You both will share an open road of communication.
i agree with everything except these sentences. some guys are just like this and still care.
There's never a "one size fit all boot". There's always that small slot of people who fall against the odds and aren't what you say. Generally speaking however, if a guy does not put much time or dedication in to a girl he has no interest in her. I know when something excites me, I put work into it because saying you care just isn't enough, you have to show it. I honestly couldn't handle someone that seemed distant, aloof and was a bad communicator. I wouldn't believe they cared even if they said it. "Actions speak louder than words".
for example my current boyfriend is just a really aloof guy and tries to act cool most of the time but he started doing a lot of special stuff for me from the beginning like paying my bills, rent, cash presents and giving me a salary in the cushiest job you can imagine
Well, you see he began to put effort into a relationship with someone he liked. If he didn't , he'd come across as uncaring.
Or think we're going to live happily ever after.
Like I just met you ball of unconnected nerve endings.

I am usually after first sex sent flowers with a message. A man who cares about women with whom he had sex, it will send message.
INFP or ENFP male detected
I'm an INFP and we have the most poetic hearts and deepest thoughts. Women love that.
Lol my first time was terrible.. needless to say.. i didn't text the dude back.. i felt nothing for him.. no oxcy.. whatever.. nothing... nlbut he kept blowin up my phone... lol
He didn't bring you to orgasm world that's why :)
Either both parties agree to casual sex and there are no ties besides sex. Or you dont have sex unless both of you are exclusive. That way there is no uncertainty for both parties.
I Think this kinda applies to some guys too
i always disagree with any female opinion for no reason at all :p
but i see your points valid
here is a cookie :>
Great take, something fresh.
good take, i agree with a lot of things here.
Based your posts @stacyzee, you seem like you'd be a fun/cool chick to date.
so true
I am saving myself for marriage so I don't need to worry about this lol.
100% agree with the first one. I hate it when girls expect that we're dating now just because we slept together the night before.
They shouldn't forget to take the morning after pill if (as usual) no precautions were taken.
So basically woman should just wait for a guy to graciously contact her and kindly let her know that he's interested? Sounds to me like an archaic idea and don't even get me started on how much I hate playing games.
On that note, I think it's time for men to wake up and realize that times have changed. Personally, I hate wasting time. If I like a guy, I contact him. If he doesn't respond, I'm moving on. Water under the bridge.
But waiting and guessing what if? Please, it's 2016 not 1956.
And if men can't take that kind of attitude, maybe they shouldn't play with grown women who know what they want.
I clearly stated in number 2 , if this isn't the type of relationship a woman desires then look elsewhere. I'm not sure where you're getting this wait around on him from.
"On that note, I think it's time for men to wake up and realize that times have changed. Personally, I hate wasting time. If I like a guy, I contact him. If he doesn't respond, I'm moving on. Water under the bridge." Please! I beg you to convince more girls to have this mentality. I'll do my part in convincing guys. But people should be straightforward because all these stupid games of who can not have feelings are so annoying and immature. Like you said, if you like someone, contact them and let them know.
@Botchie I will try. Whenever I say that, both men and women think I'm insane so I just do my own thing. I got lucky though. Met a guy recently and he told me straight up- I'm very attracted to you. My kind of a deal.
